How Does The Windows Azure DataCenter Work?
My pal David Lemphers recently moved over to the Windows Azure team and he’s churning out some great new posts that get behind the scenes with Azure. I really enjoyed his post last week explaining What Happens in the Data Center with some simple, easy to understand graphics and some nuggets such as this
Right now, we currently carve up the server resources in a way where each VM has the following predictable resources allocation
OS: 64-bit Windows Server 2008
CPU: 1.5-1.7 Ghz x64 equivalent
Memory: 1.7GB
Network: 100Mbs
Local Disk: 250GB (not really useful to developer at the mo')
Windows Azure Storage: 50GB
Keep watching Dave’s blog if you want to learn more about Windows Azure as he has a great way of communicating this stuff.
